Fecking BBC Scum

Weird

Under the initial rules, the pair of contestants who make it to the final both had to push separate buttons at the same time in order to win prize-money accrued in the safe. Only Helen had succeeded, meaning the friends had initially walked away with nothing.

But the day after they had filmed the first episodes on June 26, the production company admitted to the contestants the ‘flawed’ format made it ‘impossible’ to win.

Under the new rules, only one contestant needed to hit the button to win half the prize money – meaning the Welsh pair had been entitled to £22,000 prize money the first time.

To be fair, they did technically lose both times they played...

Although I do understand how annoying it must have been to be made to fly back out to film a second ending, only for this to happen. It states that under the original rules it would have been "impossible" for anyone to win. Perhaps they should have given them the prize money for the inconvenience of the whole situation?

[Rina, 40, said: ‘The episode is a fake – it’s complete deception
for the viewer.
It is not something I would ever have expected
from the BBC and people need to know the truth.]
